Promising Antimicrobial Compounds from an Endophytic Fungus Penicillium daleae EF 4 Isolated from the Seaweed Enteromorpha flexuosa Linn.
Abstract: AbstractThe present aim of the study is to isolate the endophytic fungi from various seaweeds and to screen their bioactivity, to analyze the β-lactamase inactivator and to evaluate the interactions between the crude extract of Endophytic fungi Penicillium daleae EF 4 and two antibiotics (penicillin G and tetracycline), against some antibiotic resistant bacterial strains. Seaweeds collected from various places of Bay of Bengal coast was subjected to Endophytic fungal isolation. …

Hexavalent Chromium Resistance Test of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae and Modeling of its Bioaccumulation Process
Abstract: Now a day, the release of high chromium containing tannery waste water from tanning industries to the environment is the life threatening action of human activities and bioaccumulation becomes a better alternative in treating heavy metals(such as Cr(VI) )due to its cost effective, relatively high heavy metal removal capacity and recovery property. Cell suspensions of S.cerevisiae at its exponential growth phase were added to 250 ml plastic flasks of containing …

Copper Sulfide Semiconducting Nanoparticles for Antibacterial Applications: Synthesis Strategies, Mechanisms and Performance – A Review
Abstract: Copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuS NPs) have drawn growing attention as a next-generation antibacterial platform, owing to their tunable structural, optical, and catalytic properties. This review consolidates current evidence on CuS NP synthesis, mechanisms, and antibacterial performance, comparing chemical and green synthesis routes alongside the effects of morphology, doping, and surface modification. Mechanistically, CuS NPs act through several overlapping pathways, including reactive oxygen species generation, bacterial membrane disruption, ion release, and …

Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity of Some Medicinal Plants against Most Prevalent Diabetic Wound Pathogens
Abstract: The present research work attempts to evaluate antimicrobial activity of 90% ethanolic extracts of three traditional medicinal plants viz. Terminalia bellirica, Terminalia chebula, Pyhllanthus emblica. Since ethanol is the best solvent for dissolving antimicrobial compound present as active phytoconstituents in plants, these plants were extracted with ethanol. Each extract was tested for its antimicrobial activity against three most prevalent pathogenic microorganism associated with diabetic wounds, viz. Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC3160), Pseudomonas …

Antibacterial, Cytotoxicity Studies of Azukia mungo (L.) Masam and Correlation with in silico Docking Studies
Abstract: Introduction and Background: Azukia genus plants rich in proteinaceous anti-nutrients like tannins (especially condensed tannins) has been shown to have anti-bacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and antineoplastic activity against lung and liver cancer cells. Five types of procyanidins (condensed tannins) have already been isolated from Azukia mungo and structurally elucidated. But its activity against the Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has not yet been shown. Hence we focus our work …
